Whirlwind Concert Band by Jodie Blackshaw
Description
MusicFest Canada 2022 B100
Whirlwind is the First Prize Winner of the Frank Ticheli Compostion Contest (Category 1-- Beginning Band)
A number of unusual musical devices are used in Whirlwind, which distinguish it from other young band repertoire. The use of soundscape sections at the beginning and end of the piece introduce students to cueing from a conductor, free time, and increased aural awareness of other players' contributions to the work.
Through its simple structural concepts such as using only four notes and a repeated melody in unison or loosely canonically, the work encourages the young player to focus not on pitch and harmony, but rather on sound, tone color, form and expression
